If you have configured
Connect Before Logon-
On-demand
mode for the GlobalProtect app with smart card
authentication as the authentication method, the app now provides the flexibility to
the end users to authenticate to the app either using smart card or using their
username/password. With this feature enabled, the GlobalProtect app displays two
authentication profiles for the enduser in the
Portals
drop-down on the app homepage; a profile with
<PIV>
and another profile with
<NO PIV>
. From the two
available options, the end users can choose their preferred authentication profile.
The profile with
PIV
option allows the end user to
authenticate to the app using the smart card authentication method whereas the
profile with
NO PIV
option allows them to authenticate
to the app using their username and password.
